4 Great Victory
a Terrible Case of ScFofuIa
Cured by
Hoods SarsapaYiIla

:" In the winter of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating forms.
At one time I had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and aroundmy neck and throat,
continually eXuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation of W. J..
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less.' 1 do not know what it NAV
have done for others, but l do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an
effective specific indeed. As an evidence of
my gratitude send these facts unsolicited,
and am ready to verify the authenticity Of
this cure, by personal correspondence with
any one who doubts it." CHARLES A. ROB-
ERTs, East Wilson, N. Y.
This statement is confirmed by W. j. Hunt
ley, druggist, of Lockport, N. Y, who calls the
cure great victory for Hoods Sarsaparilla.

In riding along the roads you see at fixed
intervals stones with inscriptions on them
more or less extensive, sometimes simply
initials and sometimes names with numbers
These are placed there to show who is bound
as the owner of the land to keep the road in
repair and to keep it open in the winter, and
for what distance his obligation extends.
This duty, SO far rs keeping the roads in re-

ably. From the snow plows which You see

CONFESSION.

Believe me, dear unyielding though be,
Ambitions flourish only In the sun
In noisy daylight every race is run,
With lusty pride for all the world to see.
When darkness sinks the earth in mystery.
When eye, or ear, or sight, or sound is mono
But DEATH a tide that waits to bear US on,
And life, a loosening anchor in the sea,
When time and space are huge about the soul,
And ties of custom lost beyond recall,
And courage as q garment in the flame,
Then all my spirit breaks without control,
Then the heart opens, then the hot tears fan
To prove me wholly woman that am.
